Default ALPA hotline FODM number

In a recent email titled reassignments, the email states to "...contact the ALPA Hotline*HERE*(first drop down menu) and reach out to the FODM." I've searched around for an hour and can't seem to find a number.

Anyone know the number for EWR or where to find it?

Thanks Joe. Why do they make it so hard to find that number? Instead of a "click here", just list the number!

Not sure who wrote that email but the FODM and the ALPA Answers Hotline are two vastly different things. I'd go the ALPA route. I don't trust an FODM any further than I can throw them.

If you go the the ALPA PDR site you can click on the "ALPA ANSWERS HOTLINE" under the committees/issues drag down, if it's time sensative they will call you back almost immediatley. Hence the "ALPA Hotline" reference.

Nope... can't find that either. I gotta be on the wrong page.

UAL.ALPA.org?

There is a big red button at the bottom of every MEC message that says PDR

Yeah, that takes me to a page to fill out a PDR. Dunno.

Exactly, and on the drag down where it asks for what section you select Answer Hotline.

Got it! Thank you so much. I guess I thought a PDR was more for accidents/incidents. I didn't realize you could use it for just asking questions. Seems a bit convoluted.

Regardless, thanks for hanging in there to explain it S L O W L Y to this Neanderthal...
